Gravity Dispense at Wandsworth Common Halloween Beer Festival 2012. Slightly obscured amber with a thin white head that soon clears to the edges. Toffee, dark fruit, a little nuttiness and booze on the nose. Tastes of sweet caramelised sugar, dark fruit, dates, prunes and a little booze. Fullish bodied with a boozey sweet finish. I enjoyed this one !
